I love A Christmas Carol and am generally easy to please when it comes to any version of the story. That said, this is among the worst I've seen. It is consistently bad in all regards.
The performers are mis-cast and bear little resemblance to your expectation. Likewise, the sets don't convey the proper time or place. And the music certainly won't put you in the Christmas spirit either.
I want to like every version of A Christmas Carol I see but that wasn't possible for this presentation (note – I had to fast forward through it while scanning for anything "good" just to see it all the way to the end).
